**PERSONALITY**
How do you treat your friends:
Gale keeps his friends close and loves every one of them dearly. He's very affectionate towards his friends and will hug them in greeting and or kiss them. When he loses a friend he has a hard time letting go and thinks that something he did ran them off but won't express that feeling to too many people.
How do you treat your enemies:
He doesn't like confrontation of any kind and would much rather ignore people who don't like him and ones he doesn't like. If someone pushes him too far then he can have a bit of an outburst, screaming at them but violence isn't something that he wants and he rarely gets that mad to get violent.

He's semi popular, a bit of a loner but has a group of friends that he's quite happy with. Most know of him as the guy that hugs on everyone lol

Transfiguration
Astronomy
DADA
Potions
Divination
Charms
Favourite/Least Favourite Subject:
Favorite Subject:
He loves his Astronomy and Transfiguration class because he excels in both and loves to sit up in the astronomy tower star gazing, he thinks its romantic.
Least favorite subject:
CoMC is his least favorite. He's never liked the odd magical creatures that pop up in his class. He really wants to see a unicorn though.. but knows he won't because he's not a girl.
What kind of student are you:
Gale is a well behaved young man who rarely causes trouble, but when he does he deserves the detentions he gets. He doesn't get in trouble very often, mostly he gets asked to stop talking to his friends but he's had one or two bigger things happen. He tries his hardest to learn what he can but if the subject isn't interesting then it's almost like they're talking to a brick wall. When he studies, Gale tends to doodle out of boredom. He hates to study, it takes too much time so he can be lazy about doing it but eventually he will since he likes getting good marks.
What is your preferred House:
Hufflepuff
**BEFORE AND AFTER**
How Did You Come To Be/Childhood:
His two dads met randomly one night and slowly created a relationship then a life together. When Jon was 24 and Braden was 36 they made the decision to have a family of their own. With the help of their friend Lisa the couple had a pair of babies nine months later. Alexis was born first at 3 AM on the dot on a cold Sunday morning, Gale followed two minutes later with no complications. They each have an older sibling, a brother named Gus and a sister named Lee.
Growing up with his alternative family, Gale was taught to accept everyone for who they are, no one is alike and that's just how it was. His biological grandfather died when he was seven, but the only reason he remembers it is because he had gotten into trouble for making noise with a toy and his grandfather took it away, so Gale huffed off to sit in the living room. When sister screamed when their grandfather collapsed in the kitchen and Gale peeked in to see what the commotion was and by that time he was already gone with their parents ushering them out of the room. He's always felt a little guilty for being angry at the man when he passed away.
Leading normal muggle lives both he and his sister noticed that they weren't like the other kids when they attended public school. Gale and Alexis were two peas in a pod, as everyone expected them to be from being twins but it was mostly because they weren't popular with friends at school because the Taylor-Kinney twins were labeled as weird. Because of the ostracizing at school Gale was a quiet child, hardly drawing attention to himself outside of home.
Coming To Hogwarts:
Moving to England was an exciting adventure for Gale, he couldn't wait to attend Hogwarts. It was a bit rough the first few months but after finding a few friends of his own he loved it at Hogwarts. The drafts in the halls is one of the things that annoys him most, as do the ever changing stairs. He got lost on those stairs more times than he'd care to admit in the first year he was at Hogwarts.
Other the last few years he's gotten attached to the castle and will be sad when he leaves. He's thought about trying to become an art professor and coming back to teach but doubts that there would be a future position for that at Hogwarts.
What do you want to do after Hogwarts:
As much as the Wizarding world means to Gale, he most likely will stick to his roots. Being muggle-born and having grown up dreaming of being an artist like his father, he most likely will do just that. He wants to attend a muggle university to pursue a degree in Fine Arts as well as move back to the states. He misses it there more than anything.

ABOUT YOUR CHARACTER –
Face Claim:
Randy Harrison
Role-playing Sample:
While he helped Ash into the plush chair he thought about what he knew about the Ravenclaw in question. He knew his last name started with an M.. and he had gorgeous icey blue eyes, and he played Quidditch. That was about it and he was interested to know more about him from Ash. The Ravenclaws at the school were really amazing people, since his boyfriend was one he hoped that Ash's was just as good.
"No problem" he grinned slightly at Ashley once he was settled in next to Gale. Smiling at him when the other boy leaned his head on his shoulder, Gale nuzzled his hair affectionately. It wasn't anything new to see Mr. Talor-Kinney nuzzling or kissing on random people, he liked the close contact of others and when doesn't a hug or a kiss make someone feel good?
Letting Ash talk, he leaned his head against Ash's head looking at the pattern on the run underneath the chairs around them as he listened. How cute was that? Jake saving Ash and then whisking him off to dinner and a late night cuddle spree. Jake sounded like a sweetheart.. then Ash spilled the little detail of saying those three words. Shit.
He looked at Ash seeing the cringe and he knew how bad those words had an effect on someone when they didn't feel the same way or wanted nothing of the sort to happen. "Well.." he murmured, collecting his thoughts for a moment trying not to just call Jake an arse without knowing everything, but he couldn't help himself. "He sounds like an arse.." he shook his head a little "Did you try to explain to him why you said it? Granted it wasn't the best thing to say but he didn't have to give you the cold shoulder for a slip up like that."
